Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)

A deeper, more focused approach to trauma healing

Some wounds live in the body even when the mind can’t

fully explain them.

Some stories loop on repeat no matter how much we talk about them.

That’s where ART comes in.

What Makes ART Different:

Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) is a trauma-focused approach that helps the brain and body process painful experiences in a safe, guided, and effective way.

Using eye movements, visualization, and nervous system-focused techniques, ART helps reduce the emotional intensity connected to trauma, anxiety, grief, abuse, and distressing memories.

Unlike traditional talk therapy alone, ART works with both the mind and body - and you do not have to share every detail of your trauma out loud to heal.

What ART Can Help With:

PTSD, CPTSD, and complex trauma

Childhood and relational trauma

Emotional abuse and narcissistic relationships

Anxiety, panic, and intrusive memories

Religious trauma and shame-based beliefs

Feeling stuck, disconnected, or emotionally exhausted

Nervous system overwhelm and survival mode

Grief, loss, and painful life transitions

What an ART Session

Looks Like

We begin with what feels emotionally stuck — a memory, belief, relationship, or feeling you’re ready to heal. ART works with your brain’s natural ability to process and resolve distress so you’re not carrying it in the same overwhelming way.

ART works quickly, but it doesn’t rush you. You stay fully aware and in control while I gently guide the process and support your brain and nervous system in doing what they were created to do: heal.

You do not have to relive every detail of your trauma out loud to heal. Healing doesn't happen through pressure or force, it happens through safety, connection, and support.

Why Women Choose ART with Me

As both a trauma therapist and someone who has walked through deep healing work myself, I understand how painful it is to feel stuck, disconnected, or exhausted from carrying so much for so long.

My approach is gentle, relational, and deeply trauma-informed. I create a space where women feel safe enough to finally exhale, process what’s been hurting, and reconnect with themselves in a meaningful way.

You do not have to walk through healing alone.

Dawn made me feel seen, heard, and understood. We did a two day ART Intensive where I learned how much past trauma affected many choices and reactions in my life. We worked through those along with recent traumas. A weight was lifted. I felt empowered finally and had the courage to move forward with finalizing my divorce after a terrible 30 year relationship. I learned that I do have a voice. I do have a choice. And I do matter. Thank you, Dawn!

Dawn brought insight to what narcissism is and how to move forward from a 20 year marriage with boundaries that protected my well being. She gave extra time and attention to a separate support group which was a lifeline in my worst days.

Dawn is amazing! She has helped me work through the most difficult times. Processing trauma is tough but having her guide and support me made me feel seen and understood. Being a part of her group therapy has helped me find the most amazing women as well.
